Bass Reeves was born into slavery. He had a very strong sense of what was right and wrong, even though he had a very hard life. He became one of the most feared and respected lawmen in the Indian Territory. He made more than 3000 arrests during his marshallin' time, but he only killed 14 men.

Another Good Read
I don't have enough room on the sidebar to post all of these great books! It is summer and I am reading like crazy. This is a great picture book that is a true story. For those of us in Arkansas it is even more great because it takes place in our area.
